The equations
that you work with will fall into one of four categories.
If you learn these categories and examples, you will have
most of the knowledge required to balance many equations.
It is very important to be able to do this because most chemistry
problems require a balanced equation to even begin solveing
the problem. The four main types of reactions are listed below:
composition
or synthesis reaction
decompostion
reaction
single
displacement reaction
double
displacement reaction
In the
next two sections, we will further discuss these reactions
and how to write the reactions from a given text description.
